Ofsted
We are delighted to share with you our most recent Ofsted inspection report, from June 2024.
There are 2 types of inspection and ours was an ungraded (section 8) inspection. The process was a very robust and thorough 2 days, and the outcome is that we continue to be a good school. In the inspector’s words, it was clear to her that we are in a very strong position and:
‘The school has a strong, inclusive ethos. The school values of respect, resilience, collective responsibility and reflection thread through every aspect of life in school.’
We have picked some highlights for you, describing The John Bamford Primary as a school where:
‘The school is ambitious for all pupils.’
‘Pupils show a vibrant love of learning.’
‘Leaders develop a nurturing and caring environment.’
‘…wellbeing is given a high priority.’
‘The school’s curriculum is ambitious and engages learners well …’
‘The school has placed a strong importance on pupils’ personal development.’
‘Pupil voice is embedded throughout the school.’
‘There is a strong sense of team and working together for the benefit of all the pupils.’
